East Bengal: Subhash Bhowmick blasts 'absent' Khalid Jamil

The newly-appointed Technical Director of the Red and Golds was not appreciative of the coach's absence from training sessions...

East Bengal's new Technical Director Subhash Bhowmick has taken aim at coach Khalid Jamil who failed to turn up for the team's practice for the second day in a row at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata.

Bhowmick, who took charge of the session in Jamil's absence, did not mince words after training while addressing the former Aizawl FC coach.

"I tried getting in touch with Khalid but he hasn't answered my calls. Who does he think he is? Khalid Jamil is not Pep Guardiola or Jose Mourinho or Sir Alex Ferguson. I don’t know why he is not coming to practice," he raged.
